It sounds like this could be a misinterpretation of Sleep Paralysis. SP is where your whole body is numb and paralyzed. This has nothing to do with lack of circulation. It happens every night naturally so you don't thrash around in your dreams. I can see the two being confused. Waking up with your arm numb because you slept on it, or waking up with your whole body numb from SP.

Sleep Paralysis can lead to lucid dreams, and you will find a lot of information on it here.
yea that can probably be it!
